The brand traces its origins to 1774, when Johann Adam Birkenstock was registered as a shoemaker in Germany. In 1896, Konrad Birkenstock developed the first contoured insole. The brand gained international prominence in the 1960s after Margot Fraser introduced the sandals to the United States. Historically associated with counterculture movements, the brand transitioned into mainstream fashion through high-profile collaborations, establishing its role as a staple of functional, minimalist design.
